Between cycles

Supports Germany and Israel teams through Eureka Network Projects, enabling paired research groups to solve shared technology needs.

Between cycles

Funds German material-science R&D, covering 50% up to 100% of costs.

Between cycles

Invests in German deep-tech ventures through shared-equity support with private co-financing and downside risk share.

Between cycles

Supports German companies with subsidised loans for environmental protection, climate action, circular economy, biodiversity, and resource efficiency upgrades.

Closed

Funds Kick-start studies that bring space-enabled services to the Asia-Pacific region.

Closed

Invests Bilateral Scientific and Technological Cooperation between Greece and Germany for practical innovation and measurable results.

Closed

Funds Czech and partner organizations for bilateral innovation projects in strategic sectors including energy.

Open

Funds coordination of European nuclear research platforms across energy, medicine, space, maritime uses and radiation protection.

Open

Funds a €9.4M lithium-ion battery recycling pilot line in India, matched to a separately funded Indian project on the same schedule.

Open

Funds four €7.1M projects that make battery electrode materials cleaner to produce — via greener refining or plant-based sourcing instead of mined graphite.

Open

Funds eight €15–25M lump-sum projects that turn carbon capture, clean energy and circular production ideas into market-ready industrial demonstrations.

Open

Funds €15–25M lump-sum projects led by industry to mature energy, power, storage, fuels or CCU solutions from TRL 6 to market-ready deployment.

Open

Funds two €9M projects that capture a factory's own waste heat and put it back into the process, proven at a live plant and built for EU-wide reuse.

Open

Funds a single €1.6M project to build a shared EU nuclear training curriculum and cross-border qualification recognition, from technicians to regulators.

Open

Funds a €15M continuation of the CONNECT-NM nuclear materials partnership, open only to its sitting coordinator and any partners it adds.

Open

Funds one €500K project that coordinates Europe's nuclear research network, connecting reactor science with medical and space uses of the field.

Open

Funds €3M consortium projects that keep Europe's ageing nuclear fleet running safely, from crack detection to swapping in alternative reactor fuel.

Open

Funds one project to build an EU-wide nuclear training and mobility network, with a shared education website and an AI-in-education safety pilot.

Open

Funds a consortium of infrastructure operators that gives researchers free access to nuclear safety and radiation-protection facilities across Europe.

Open

Funds five €3M projects that test the safety of next-generation reactors and their fuel, from small modular designs to Gen-IV concepts.

Open

Funds three €5.25M studies of how different groups of people actually use smart buildings, and what that means for real energy savings.

Open

Funds one €93M wind-energy project — split across breakthrough R&D, technology validation, and at least three real-world demonstrations.

Funds SME consortia up to €120,000 to pilot and test net-zero technologies.
